The people who come up with these things need to learn a little more about gas. Even if you don't buy from Mobil/Exxon, 90% of the time, you are still buying from Mobil/Exxon.

exoonmobile also produces 60-70% of their oil from other countries.


we should be thankful they make as much profits as they do....and support as many americans as they do.


its a VERY large company. Large companies make large profits when the product they sell goes up in price.


just like home builders.

when times are good...of course they make record profits.

This has been debunked years ago at Snopes.com. If you believe that, you must have forwarded the e-mail saying Bill Gates would give you a thousand dollars to forward an e-mail.

I'm sure TONS of people already buy the cheapest gas. Doesn't seem to effect the major companies too much.
